Looks like we are bringing in Kobe Williams and Royce Metchie (more officially?) based on reports:

https://3downnation.com/2025/02/03/s...royce-metchie/
Anyone have any insight on Williams, Metchie, or Rugamba? We are definitely gong to have a lot of turnover in the defensive backfield but given we finished dead last in the league in passing yards against, that seems like a positive.Last edited by Cerebral; 02-04-2025, 12:52 AM.

If everything goes as reported and based on 3 down nations free agent rankings, we signed the #1(Ford), 5 (Metchie) and 9th (Williams) ranked DBs with Ford and Metchie being the top ranked Canadian DBs. We signed the #1 (Beard), 5 (Boyko) and 9th (MacKellar) ranked Olineman. We signed the #1 (Ceresna) and 2 (Brinkman) ranked Defensive tackles and the #1 (Smith) ranked Defensive end and the #3 (Julien-Grant) ranked receiver.
Not sure how we pulled all of that off but I'm not going to complain.

Hervey is putting his money where his mouth is from his hiring presser. He told free agents the crappy times are over in Edmonton, you can come here again and it's showing. He's having a "splashy" free agency but he's doing it by signing guys to fill spots that needed to be filled and he's doing a ton with Canadians.
He's not signing big names just to add big names. I have said it before and thought it was mistakes. The Elks got "Splashy" in previous years when they signed Lawler and Lewis. Big names and get peoples attention but didn't address a need. So far all of his signings haven't made me have to stop and try to figure out the point.Last edited by Sectionq; 02-04-2025, 09:47 AM.Blindly accept whatever they do and if it doesn't work out, I guess there's always next year.
